The Northwestern league halls Osh-
kosh as victor, though the outcome
is not free from the taint Of collusion.
While confessedly strong team and
as well able to win the championship as
any, the fact that Milwaukee declined
to play the last game at Oshkosh.
which II won by the former would
have given them the psnnant, cannot
but give rise to some doubts as 10 the
fairness OF the award. Milwaukee
had no reason to fear the outcome as
IL had up to two weeks Of the close
held first place firmly, and the refusal
to enter the lists for game that had
for them the possibility Of winning
the championship looks queer to say
the least. In the beginning of the
season Oshkosh, Milwaukee, Des
Moines and It. Paul developed Ms the
four strong cluLs and between them
held the first four places during the
whole of the season. Milwaukee wss
for the greater part Of the season in
the lead. Once in August st. Paul
took fret place, and toward the close
Oshkosh took and held ii. Des Moines
Leve reached 1t, and Tor the most of
the time danced between third and
fourth. The four weaker clubs
closed in average fair positions, the

Mcguire toahe Front.

John Mcguire has made deal
which will place him beyond the
reach Of kicking managers. Accord
ing to Denver special he has lately
formed partnership in theatrical
speculation with Manager McCourt Of
the Tabor Grand Opera house in Dem
yer. Their first enterprise will be the
famous Thomas Mast In lectures
throughout Colorado, Montana, Ore.
gon. California, etc. The plays in
which Mcguire holds the proprietary
right will also be placed on the road,
Mr.. Charles Compton to represent
McCourt and Mr.. L. Villemaire TO
represent Mcguire in all travelling
combinations, beginning with Mast.
II il rumored that Mcguire assumes
control of the Walker opera house,
Salt Lake, which has been idle since he
gave up its management two years
ago. This combination will un-
control a theatre in San
Francisco eventually, which means
entire control west Of the Missouri
river,

The closeness OF this race will be
noted in the positions Of the first
four clubs, the percentage OF the
fourth being Identical with that Of
second In in the league, and the per-
centage of the whole being better than
either the league or the association,
showing much better average play.
The average percentage OF the first
four ID the Northwestern being 632
against $40 in the Association and 59i
in the League.
The American Association for
months past has conceded the PEN
nant to st. Louis, contenting itself
with making the best fight its clubs
could for the intermediate places be-
tween first and last. Cincinnati's
struggle for second place has been
noble one and though six weeks ago
almost hopelessly in the rear of Louis
VILE and Baltimore, II won the place.

from Modesty Carter, manager OF the
Mabry cattle company, announcing
the marketing Of their beeves at Chi
cago at very satisfactory prices, the
"tops" about 1000 head bringing 81. .25
and averaging 1850 pounds, and the
remainder Of the shipment, some 500
head bringing s3.lO. The price
brought by the tops" is the best this
season for Montana cattle, beating the
record made by the Berry l. BEIGE cat
tie. l7l cents per 100 pounds. The en-
tire shipment is spoken Of by compe-
tent judges rs a remarkably fine lot

During the summer Modesty has free
ly backed his opinion that he would
sell within Is cents of the top price,
and now that he has exceeded il by
more than this margin, he has cause to
feel elated. The telegram received by
the JOURNAL indicates that he was
prepared to paint Chicago a rich ver.

Delegate Toole in Washington few
days ago said that there will be an ex-
ceedingly vigorous movement in Con-
gress this winter for the admission OF
four new states, namely: Dakota, Mon
taDa, Washington and New Mexico.
He does not think there will be any
chance for bill providing for the di-
vision OF Dakota, and says that even
II there should be an overwhelming
majority for division in the November
elections he thinks il would have no
effect on congressional action. Con-

The WIND Up.
Final Summary of the Base Ball Season Of
1887.
Although the championship season
in the various leagues was virtually at
an end over q week ago, the playing
Of some postponed games prevented
an actual and correct summing up of
the seasons work until he present
time, and now more as q matter of
record than news we publish the final
summary.
In theNstionslLeague, the long fore.
shadowed victory Of Detroit is con-
firmed by fair Margin over Philadel-
phia, though had there been two
weeks more play itiis probable that
the Quakers might have taken first
place, so perfect was the form in which
tSss were playing at the close Of the
season. Chicago so long second and
once during the season clean tie for
first place, finds itself relegated to
third position by the proves Of Phila-
delphis, aud its own indifferent play.
New York closes a good fourth and
Boston with the $4,000 Kelly Is
forced into fifth place, but W hen it is
considered that they won more games
than they lost, it will readily be seen
that the beaneaters are no slouches af-
ter all. Pittsburg pulled up amazing
ly toward the end Of the season, and
closed with a very fine record. Wash.
ington and Indianapolis bring up
tn. rear nine games apart and the for
mer nine games behind Pittsburg
Never In the history of the National
League has there been SO exciting q
race for the pennant as this season,
Up to within month of the close
there were five possible winners, all
of whom closed above the 500 mark.
The record is rs follows:

The Iirrt SbipmeDt.

The fist shipment of cattle from the
Canadian Northwest ranches will be
made shortly. There are now being
loaded at Calgary forty-ive cars Of cat
tie sggrsgsting about 900 head, and
they will shortly pass through the city
en- route for Montreal, from which
port they will be shipped for Liver
pool. The cattle are from the Coch-
rane ranches. This is an important
event to the cattle trade, ~ these cat
tie will be the vanguard Of what 10
hoped will be the chief export from
the western portions Of the territories.
Hitherto all the surplus cattle on the
ranges have been killed for the local
market; but the time has now arrived
when an outside market will have to
be looked for. II is not probable that
there will be any heavy shipments
this year, but in year Of two the bus
mess will have reached proportions

Free Trade.

The reduction Of internal revenue
and the taking off Of revenue stamps
from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt
has largely benefited the consumers,
rs well as relieving the burden Of home
manufacturers. Especially is this the
case with Green's August Flower and
Boschee's German Syrup, as the re.
duction Of thirty.six cents per dozer
has been added to increase be tsize Of
the bottles containing these remedies,
thereby giving one-fifth more medi.
cine in the 75 cents size. The August
Flower for dyspepsia and Liver Com
plaiut. aud the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, havedper-

creased size of the bottles will be great
ly appreciated by the sick and afflicted
In every town aud village in civilized

Dizziness was the prominent feature Of
the New York market this week. After q
rather favorable appearance Of gaining
strength in the early part of the week the
close witnessed weakening in tone
which was sufficient to depress values
slightly below the range at the close Of
last Week. The market for contracts has
been chiefly q sC2Iping one, and the de-
maud for spots has been less active, with
decided irregularlty. In the early part Of
the week reports OF further shTinkage in
Rio and Santos crop estimates added 10
stronger primary and foreign markets
caused hardening il contracts, which
advanced about 4c up to Tuesday night.
Spots showed no change. On Wednesday q
weakening feeling manifested itself, cue
chiefly TO lower Hsvre adviCes. Prices
went c # shout l.. On Thursday little
change was noted. The most generally
&C spted reason for weakening wSs found
in bearish crop estimate cabled from
Rio to leading house here, and also in
the weakness at Hsvre. Rio this week
gained slightly in values Bradstreet's.
